[0002] In various game application scenarios, there is usually a need to enhance the user experience and provide more realistic game feedback effects.

[0003] In related technologies, when the shooting button on the game control device is triggered to perform the shooting action, the feedback given to the user by the first button does not change as the number of bullets gradually decreases. This fails to provide the user with accurate feedback information, has certain limitations, and results in a poor sense of realism in the game.

[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of this disclosure, and therefore may include data that does not constitute prior art known to those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] Other features and advantages of embodiments of this disclosure will become apparent from the following detailed description, or may be learned in part by practice of this disclosure.

[0013] In one exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, the method further includes: if the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is not greater than a first parameter threshold, the change in pressing resistance and / or the change in key travel increases as the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated; wherein, the change in pressing resistance is the difference between the increased pressing resistance and the pressing resistance before the increase; and the change in key travel is the difference between the key travel before the shortening and the key travel after the shortening.

[0014] In one exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, the method further includes: in response to the first parameter being greater than the first parameter threshold, sending a device parameter control signal to the game control device to control the interaction parameters of the first button such that the pressing resistance of the first button is configured as a preset pressing resistance, and / or the key travel is configured as a preset key travel.

[0015] In one exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, in response to the first parameter satisfying the first parameter condition, a device parameter adjustment signal is sent to the game control device to adjust the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance of the first button increases and / or the key travel is shortened. This includes: in response to the first parameter of the updated virtual auxiliary object being zero, sending a device parameter adjustment signal to the game control device to adjust the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance and / or key travel of the first button are configured to prevent the first game control signal from being sent by triggering the first button, and / or not responding to the first game control signal sent by triggering the first button.

[0017] In one exemplary embodiment of this disclosure, the method further includes: determining the vibration parameters of the first button based on the pressing resistance, wherein the pressing resistance is positively correlated with the vibration parameters.

[0018] According to one aspect of this disclosure, a human-computer interaction control device for a game is provided. The device runs a game application on a game platform to provide game services to a user and receives game control signals sent by the user to the game platform via a game control device, and executes corresponding game actions according to the game control signals. The device includes: an action execution module, configured to respond to a user sending a first game control signal by triggering a first button on the game control device, controlling a virtual game object to execute a first game action through a virtual auxiliary object, wherein the virtual game object is a virtual object controlled by the user, and the virtual auxiliary object is a virtual object associated with the virtual game object; a parameter update module, configured to update a first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object in response to the first game action, the first parameter being used to set the number and / or duration of the first game action that the virtual auxiliary object can execute; and a button parameter adjustment module, configured to send a device parameter adjustment signal to the game control device in response to the first parameter satisfying a first parameter condition, to adjust the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance of the first button increases and / or the button travel is shortened.

Feedback information about the change in the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is provided to the user through the first button, avoiding the limitation of not being able to intuitively perceive the usage status of the virtual auxiliary object in related technologies. It can accurately provide operation feedback information, improving the user's immersion and realism in the game. On the other hand, since the first button is controlled according to the adjusted interaction parameters of the first button, and thus the virtual auxiliary object is controlled, invalid operations can be avoided, improving the effectiveness of operation and the accuracy of controlling the virtual auxiliary object.

[0032] Furthermore, the accompanying drawings are merely illustrative of this disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale.

[0033] This disclosure first provides a human-computer interaction control method for games, applicable to various application scenarios where virtual weapons can be used. A game application can run on a game platform to provide game services to the user. The game application can be of various types, including functions such as using virtual weapons. Based on this, the system receives game control signals sent by the user to the game platform via a game control device, and executes corresponding game actions according to the game control signals. The game control device can be a peripheral device, such as a game controller. Game actions can be associated with the game application, such as releasing skills or firing bullets or ammunition.

[0034] Next, refer to Figure 1 The specific steps of the human-computer interaction control method for games in this embodiment are further explained and illustrated in the diagram.

[0035] In step S110, in response to the user sending a first game control signal by triggering a first button on the game control device, the virtual game object is controlled to perform a first game action through a virtual auxiliary object. The virtual game object is a virtual object controlled by the user, that is, a virtual object manipulated by the game control device, and the virtual auxiliary object is a virtual object associated with the virtual game object.

[0036] In this embodiment, the game scene can be any scene that requires the use of virtual objects. For example, the game scene can be a VR (Virtual Reality) game scene or an AR (Augmented Reality) game scene. The game control device can be a peripheral device used to control virtual game objects and virtual auxiliary objects in the game, such as a game controller. The game controller itself can have a damping function. The game controller can be a three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) controller or a six-degree-of-freedom (DOF) controller, as long as it can be configured with a damping function. The damping function of the game controller can be multi-stage adjustable damping.

[0037] The first button on the game control device refers to the game controller trigger, used to control a virtual game object to perform a first game action through a virtual auxiliary object. The virtual game object is a virtual object controlled by the user, which can be a virtual weapon controlled by the user in the game, such as, but not limited to, virtual firearms, virtual crossbows, virtual tanks, mortars, etc., as long as it can be fired. The virtual auxiliary object is a virtual object associated with the virtual game object, and can be an accessory associated with the virtual game object. For example, a detachable loading component. The virtual game object loads the virtual auxiliary object through the virtual loading component, which can be a virtual magazine, a virtual backpack for carrying arrows, etc. The virtual game object performs the first game action through the virtual auxiliary object, that is, the virtual auxiliary object can be triggered by the virtual game object to be released or fired. For example, when the virtual game object is a virtual firearm, the virtual auxiliary object can be the virtual bullets corresponding to the virtual firearm; when the virtual game object is a virtual crossbow, the virtual auxiliary object can be the virtual arrows corresponding to the virtual crossbow, etc.

[0038] The first game control signal can be triggered by pressing the first button or other types of operations. It is used to control virtual auxiliary objects to achieve the first game action; here, we will use a pressing operation as an example. The first game action is determined by the type of virtual game object. When the virtual game object is a virtual firearm or a virtual crossbow, the first game action can be a virtual shooting action.

[0039] In step S120, in response to the first game action, the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated, the first parameter being used to set the number and / or duration of the first game action that the virtual auxiliary object can perform.

[0040] In this embodiment of the disclosure, during the triggering of the first game action, the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object can be updated. The first parameter can represent the state information of the virtual auxiliary object and is used to set the number and / or duration for which the virtual auxiliary object can execute the first game action. For example, the first parameter can be used to represent the remaining number and / or remaining duration of the virtual auxiliary object at the current moment. It should be noted that as the first game action is executed, the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object gradually decreases, that is, the first parameter of the updated virtual auxiliary object is smaller than the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object before the update. For example, the number of virtual auxiliary objects decreases after the update, and the duration for which the updated virtual auxiliary object can execute the first game action decreases.

[0041] For a single game action, the number of times the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated can be determined based on the type of the virtual game object. For a single virtual game object, the degree to which the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated is the same each time. For example, each time a game action is performed, the number of virtual auxiliary objects is reduced by one, or the specified duration of using virtual auxiliary objects is reduced, until the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is reduced to zero and the updating stops.

[0042] For example, if the game scenario is a bullet shooting scenario, the virtual game object includes virtual firearms, the virtual auxiliary object includes virtual bullets, and the first game action includes virtual shooting action. Based on this, the virtual firearm can be controlled to perform virtual shooting actions using virtual bullets via a first button on the game control device. When performing virtual shooting actions, the remaining quantity of virtual bullets loaded in the virtual magazine or other virtual loading components can be updated, and the updated quantity of virtual bullets is less than the original quantity. In addition, the remaining duration of the virtual bullets can also be updated, in the same way as updating the quantity, and is not specifically limited here.

[0043] If the game scenario is an archery shooting scenario, the virtual game object includes a virtual crossbow, the virtual auxiliary object includes virtual arrows, and the first game action includes a virtual shooting action. The virtual crossbow weapon can be controlled to perform virtual shooting actions using virtual arrows via a first button on the game control device. When executing the first game action, the number of virtual arrows is updated, and the updated number of virtual arrows is less than the original number. The virtual arrows can be loaded into a virtual arrow pod or other virtual loading components. When executing the first game action, the remaining number of virtual arrows loaded in the virtual loading components can be updated. In addition, the remaining time for using virtual arrows can also be updated, in the same way as updating the number, and is not specifically limited here.

[0044] Continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, in step S130, in response to the first parameter satisfying the first parameter condition, a device parameter adjustment signal is sent to the game control device to adjust the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance of the first button increases and / or the key travel is shortened.

[0045] In this embodiment, the first parameter condition determines whether the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object at the current moment has reached a set threshold. Specifically, the first parameter condition is represented by a quantity threshold or a duration threshold. Based on this, the first parameter condition is used to determine whether the interaction parameters of the first button need to be adjusted. The first parameter condition can be determined according to the actual needs of the application scenario.

[0046] Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the process of adjusting interaction parameters based on the first parameter. (See reference...) Figure 2 As shown, the main steps include:

[0047] In step S210, it is determined whether the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is greater than the first parameter threshold; if not, proceed to step S220; if yes, proceed to step S230.

[0048] In step S220, if the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is not greater than the first parameter threshold, the change in pressing resistance and / or the change in key travel increases as the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated;

[0049] In step S230, in response to the first parameter being greater than the first parameter threshold, a device parameter control signal is sent to the game control device to control the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance of the first button is configured to a preset pressing resistance, and / or the key travel is configured to a preset key travel.

[0050] In this embodiment of the disclosure, if the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is not greater than a first parameter threshold, the first parameter is considered to satisfy the first parameter condition. The first parameter condition can be that the quantity is not greater than a quantity threshold and / or the duration is not greater than a duration threshold. The quantity threshold can be determined based on the total number of virtual auxiliary items, for example, it can be 20% or 30% of the total number, etc. For example, the quantity threshold can be two, three, or four, etc., without specific limitation here. The duration threshold can also be determined based on the total duration of the virtual auxiliary items, for example, it can be 20% or 30% of the total duration, etc., without specific limitation here.

[0051] If the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object meets the first parameter condition, a device parameter adjustment signal can be sent to the game control device to adjust the interaction parameters of the first button. The device parameter adjustment signal is used to adjust the parameters of the game control device used to control the virtual auxiliary object. The interaction parameters can represent the parameters used to control the first button, and are used to adjust the pressing resistance and key travel of the first button. For example, the interaction parameters may include, but are not limited to, the pressing force of the first button or the feasible key travel of the first button, and may also include other parameters, etc.

[0052] In response to the condition that the first parameter is satisfied, the interaction parameters of the first button can be adjusted to increase the pressing resistance and / or shorten the button travel. Pressing resistance refers to the damping information of the first button. Pressing resistance represents the resistance generated when the first button is triggered, thus affecting the triggering force. When the first button is a game controller button, the pressing resistance can be the actual resistance. Pressing resistance is generated by the motor in the game controller, and it is positively correlated with the triggering force; that is, the greater the pressing resistance, the greater the triggering force. Button travel indicates the degree of triggering of the first button, i.e., whether the first button can only be partially or fully pressed, i.e., partial or full triggering.

[0053] When updating the first parameter of the first button, if the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is not greater than the first parameter threshold, the change in the first parameter can increase as the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated. The change in the first parameter refers to the degree of change, such as changes in pressing resistance and / or changes in button travel. Specifically, the change in pressing resistance is the difference between the increased pressing resistance and the original pressing resistance; the change in button travel is the difference between the original button travel and the shortened button travel. For example, the degree of change in the first parameter can increase as the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated, that is, the change in pressing resistance and / or the change in button travel increases as the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated. Based on this, as the number of virtual auxiliary objects decreases, the change in pressing resistance gradually increases, and the feedback information on the first button gradually strengthens, thereby enhancing the realism and immersion of the game.

[0054] When determining the pressing resistance and key travel of the first button, the pressing resistance and key travel can be determined based on the number of times the first parameter is updated. Furthermore, the change in pressing resistance and / or key travel can be positively correlated with the number of times the first parameter is updated, but the pressing resistance is less than the maximum pressing resistance. That is, the more times the first parameter is updated (the more times the first game action occurs), the greater the change in pressing resistance and / or key travel. For example, the pressing resistance can be 2 for the first update; 4 for the second update; and 8 for the third update. As another example, the key travel can be 10 for the first update; 9 for the second update; and 7 for the third update. It should be noted that the pressing resistance and key travel remain fixed for each update of the first parameter. For instance, after the first update of the first parameter, if no second update is detected, the pressing resistance remains constant at 2; it will only switch to 4 when a second update is detected.

[0055] Furthermore, as the number of times the first parameter is updated increases, the pressing resistance is positively correlated with the number of times the first parameter is updated, while the key travel is negatively correlated with the number of times the first parameter is updated. That is, when the first parameter is updated for the second time, the pressing resistance is greater than that when the first parameter is updated for the first time, and the key travel is less than that when the first parameter is updated for the first time.

[0056] It should be noted that in some embodiments, if the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is not greater than the first parameter threshold, only the pressing resistance of the first button can be updated, while keeping the key travel of the first button unchanged at the maximum feasible key travel. The pressing resistance can be positively correlated with the update of the first parameter, and the change in pressing resistance increases as the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is updated.

[0057] In response to the condition that the first parameter is satisfied, the first parameter can be adjusted until it becomes zero. When the first parameter is zero, a device parameter adjustment signal is sent to the game control device to adjust the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance and / or key travel of the first button are configured so that the first game control signal cannot be sent by triggering the first button, and / or the first game control signal sent by triggering the first button is not responded to. In this case, the pressing resistance is the maximum resistance, the key travel can be adjusted from a first feasible key travel to a second feasible key travel, and based on the second feasible key travel, it can be adjusted to a third feasible key travel, so as to provide prompts and feedback on the exhaustion of the virtual auxiliary object through the adjustment and change of the pressing resistance or key travel.

[0058] Before the first parameter is detected to be zero, the key travel of the first key can be the first feasible key travel. The first feasible key travel refers to the maximum feasible key travel, which is the total length of the feasible key travel. Figure 3 The diagram illustrates a first type of key travel. (Reference) Figure 3 As shown, when the first button is a game controller trigger, the initial position of the game controller trigger is A, and its corresponding key travel can be the first feasible key travel. For example, the key travel length of an input device button is 10 units. For instance, if the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is greater than the first parameter threshold, i.e., the remaining number is greater than 2 or 3, then the maximum feasible key travel is determined as the executed key travel, and the key travel remains unchanged. If the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is not greater than the first parameter threshold, for example, when the remaining number of the first parameter is 2, if the first game behavior is detected, the trigger operation acting on the first button can be executed according to the first feasible key travel. (Reference) Figure 3 As shown, the first key can execute the entire length of the feasible key travel, for example, 10 keystrokes.

[0059] When the number of the first parameter is detected to be zero, the key travel of the first button can be adjusted first. Key travel refers to the feasible key travel of the first button, also known as the available travel distance. Feasible key travel can be used to indicate the degree of operation of the first button, such as full triggering or partial triggering. For the first button, its feasible key travel range can be 0-10 increments.

[0060] For example, the key travel of the first key can be reduced. Specifically, the key travel can be switched from a first feasible key travel to a second feasible key travel. The second feasible key travel refers to the key travel when the first parameter is zero, and the second feasible key travel is less than the first feasible key travel, for example, it can be 2 increments.

[0061] After switching to the second feasible key travel, the key travel can be increased from the second feasible key travel to the third feasible key travel, and the pressing resistance of the first key can be adjusted according to the key travel. The third feasible key travel can be a key travel adjacent to the second feasible key travel. For example, the key travel can be increased from 2 increments to 3 increments.

[0062] It should be noted that although there is still a certain key travel, the first game action can only be triggered when the key travel is the first feasible key travel. Therefore, some feasible key travel cannot trigger the first game control signal sent by the first key, and the first game action cannot be executed.

[0063] After the update, the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is zero, and the pressing resistance of the first button can be adjusted. While adjusting the button travel, if the button travel meets the travel condition, the pressing resistance is increased to adjust it to the maximum pressing resistance. Specifically, whether the button travel meets the travel condition can be determined by whether the second feasible travel has increased to the third feasible travel. If the second feasible travel has increased to the third feasible travel, the button travel is determined to meet the travel condition. If the second feasible travel has not increased to the third feasible travel, the button travel is considered not to meet the travel condition. When the travel condition is met, the pressing resistance can be increased to the maximum pressing resistance. When the pressing resistance is increased to the maximum pressing resistance, the virtual auxiliary object cannot be controlled by the trigger operation applied to the first button, i.e., the first game behavior can no longer be executed.

[0064] Figure 4 The diagram illustrates a second type of key travel, for reference. Figure 4 As shown, the initial position of the game controller trigger is A. The key travel of the first button is shortened from a first feasible key travel to a second feasible key travel. The second feasible key travel can be 2 increments, and the remaining key travel cannot be executed. Based on this, in response to the triggering operation of the first button, the first button can execute the length corresponding to the second feasible key travel, for example, 2 increments. During this process, the pressing resistance of the first button can be greater than the preset pressing resistance (the preset pressing resistance is 0), for example, it can be 8.

[0065] For example, refer to Figure 4As shown, after the user presses the first button, only a 2-stroke travel is possible. However, the first button can still be triggered, but with greater force than before. The pressing resistance increases from 0 to 8. Furthermore, if the first button's travel increases from a second feasible travel to a third feasible travel, the pressing resistance increases to the maximum. For example, if the travel increases from 2 to 3, the pressing resistance increases to 10.

[0066] In addition, if the first parameter does not meet the first parameter condition, no pressing resistance will be provided, i.e., the pressing resistance is 0, and the first button corresponding to the game control device can execute the trigger operation normally. Not meeting the first parameter condition can be understood as the first parameter being greater than the first parameter threshold, i.e., the number of virtual auxiliary objects is sufficient. In this case, a device parameter control signal can be sent to the game control device to control the interaction parameters of the first button so that the pressing resistance of the first button is configured to a preset pressing resistance, and / or the button travel is configured to a preset button travel. The preset pressing resistance can be 0, and the preset button travel can be the maximum feasible travel. That is, if the number of virtual auxiliary objects is greater than the quantity threshold or the duration of the virtual auxiliary objects is greater than the duration threshold, the pressing resistance can be set to 0, and the button travel can be set to the maximum feasible travel, thereby triggering the first game behavior normally through the first button, providing prompts and feedback on the preset pressing resistance and / or preset button travel that do not change when the first game behavior is triggered normally.

[0067] In this embodiment of the disclosure, after adjusting the pressing resistance and key travel of the first button, the triggering operation of the first button can be controlled according to the adjusted pressing resistance and key travel. Specifically, the triggering force and the degree of operation can be controlled.

[0068] Specifically, the trigger force is positively correlated with the magnitude of the pressing resistance; the trigger force increases as the pressing resistance increases. For example, when the pressing resistance is 0, the trigger force is minimal; when the pressing resistance is 4, the trigger force increases to the first level; when the pressing resistance is 8, the trigger force increases to the second level; and when the pressing resistance is 10, the first button cannot continue to trigger. The second level of force is greater than the first level.

[0069] The trigger operation's intensity is positively correlated with the key travel; that is, the intensity decreases as the key travel decreases. For example, when the key travel is 10, the intensity is the first and maximum; when the key travel is 2, the intensity decreases to the second; when the second attribute information is 3, the intensity of the first key's operation is the third, and the trigger operation cannot continue. The third intensity is less than the second, and the second intensity is less than the first.

[0070] By adjusting the pressing resistance and / or key travel of the first button according to the first parameter condition, the triggering force and operation degree of the first button can be controlled. This enables precise control of virtual game objects and their associated virtual auxiliary objects in the game scene. As the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object gradually decreases, the triggering force and operation degree of the first button can be prompted and fed back.

[0071] By adjusting the pressing resistance and key travel of the first button, feedback information can be provided for the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object. The first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is fed back to the trigger operation corresponding to the first button, avoiding the situation in related technologies where the user cannot feel the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object and keeps triggering the first button. This can avoid invalid operations and improve the effectiveness of the operation.

[0072] In this embodiment of the disclosure, in order to more intuitively identify the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object, a first prompt message can be provided to indicate that the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is zero or that the first game behavior cannot be performed, thereby avoiding invalid operation of the first button by the user.

[0073] In addition, the first button can be identified according to its type. If the first button is a game controller button, the identification can be based on vibration parameters. Specifically, the vibration parameters of the first button can be determined based on the pressing resistance. Vibration parameters may include, but are not limited to, vibration frequency and vibration amplitude, both of which are positively correlated with the pressing resistance of the first button. Based on this, when the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object meets the first parameter condition, in response to the control of the virtual auxiliary object by the first button, the vibration parameters corresponding to the first button when performing the first game action are determined. For example, if the first parameter condition is not met, the first button does not vibrate; if the first parameter condition is met, and an update to the first parameter is detected, and the pressing resistance is 4, the first button vibrates according to the first vibration frequency and the first vibration amplitude; if the first parameter is detected to be zero, and the pressing resistance is 8, the button vibrates according to the second vibration frequency and the second vibration amplitude, that is, both the vibration frequency and the vibration amplitude increase.

[0074] In addition, a progress bar can be provided on the user interface to indicate the travel distance of the corresponding keys. (See reference) Figure 5As shown, the operation interface 500 includes a virtual game object 501. A progress bar 502 can be provided at any position on the operation interface to represent the key travel of the first button. The progress bar 502 represents the entire feasible key travel. The progress bar 502 is divided into a first progress bar 503 and a second progress bar 504. The first progress bar 503 represents the executable key travel, and the second progress bar 504 represents the non-executable key travel. Furthermore, to save space on the operation interface, the progress bar can be provided when a trigger operation on the first button is detected, and hidden after the trigger operation ends.

[0075] It should be added that when the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object is less than the first preset parameter, for example, when the first parameter is 30% or 50% of the first preset parameter, or when the first parameter is zero, the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object can also be updated to the first preset parameter in response to the parameter reset command. The first preset parameter is configured to set the number of times the virtual auxiliary object can perform the first game behavior to a preset number, and / or set the duration for which the virtual auxiliary object can perform the first game behavior to a preset duration. The parameter reset command is used to restore the first parameter to the original first preset parameter. The first preset parameter can be a default parameter, such as the initial value of the first game behavior. For example, the first preset parameter is configured to set the number of times the virtual auxiliary object can perform the first game behavior to a preset number, and / or set the duration for which the virtual auxiliary object can perform the first game behavior to a preset duration. The preset number and preset duration can be the maximum number and maximum duration of the virtual auxiliary object. Specifically, it can be determined according to the actual situation, for example, it can be determined according to the user's level, the type of virtual game object, or the type of virtual loading component of the virtual game object. After updating the first parameter value to the first preset parameter, the processing can continue according to the methods in steps S110 to S130, which will not be repeated here.

[0076] In this embodiment, by updating the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object in response to a first game action, and adjusting the pressing resistance and / or key travel of the first button when the first parameter meets the first parameter condition, the pressing resistance and / or key travel of the first button can be adjusted through the interaction parameters corresponding to the first button when the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object changes. This provides feedback information to the user regarding the change in the first parameter of the virtual auxiliary object, avoiding the limitation of related technologies that cannot intuitively provide feedback on the usage status of the virtual auxiliary object of the virtual game object. It can accurately provide corresponding operation feedback, improving the user's immersion and realism in the game. Since the virtual auxiliary object corresponding to the virtual game object is controlled based on the adjusted pressing resistance and / or key travel, the accuracy and realism of controlling the virtual auxiliary object can be improved. Furthermore, by determining the vibration parameters to indicate the pressing resistance and / or key travel of the first button, and by clearly indicating the real tactile sensation and body sensation of the virtual auxiliary item being depleted, it is convenient for the user to quickly control the game, improving the realism and immersion of the game, and also improving the convenience and accuracy of user operation, avoiding invalid operations.
